Girls just wanna have fun... and fundamental rights. But, when has Bollywood ever been lit enough to give us a movie worthy of what we deserve? Hollywood has given us so many super entertaining stories about female friendships – Clueless, Sisterhood Of The Travelling Pants, Girls, Sex And The City, and Mean Girls to name just a few! Every women-centric film doesn’t have to be about a serious subject. We need the pink and hyperfeminine energies back in our lives, and finally, Bollywood producers have listened to us! The Veeres – Sonam Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Swara Bhasker, and Shikha Talsania – have entered our lives like a hurricane, and we are ready. As Swara tweeted, “Real Veeres fix each other's crowns... & mascara!” and we cannot stop screaming ‘YASS QUEEN’.

The trailer just dropped, and it has raised all our hopes! From cursing like sailors (as most of us do) to talking about orgasms, the girls are relatable and very real and this promises to be an awesome ride. Our Veeres are not holding out on us, and we cannot keep calm!

The Waisa Bhi Hota Hai Part II, Khoobsurat, and Mumbai Cuttingdirector Shashanka Ghosh is helming the ship. But, we have two female producers, Rhea Kapoor and Ekta Kapoor, behind this female buddy film that we had prayed for oh-so-long! One half of the writing duo of Nidhi Mehra and Mehul Suri is also a woman. When we ask for representation, we want it on-screen as well as behind the scenes. This movie is already making us ugly cry in joy.

They have also come up with a promotional hashtag, #imnotaCHICKflick. Rhea and Sonam have been vocally dissing folks who wish to write away Veere Di Wedding as just another “chick flick” because the term is often used in a sexist context. Their argument is if we aren’t going to go around calling male-dominated (basically every film) movies dude flicks, then why dismiss fun films about female friendships as chick flicks? But, we can always consider reclaiming the term too.

Apart from the main quartet, the film will also have our Permanent Roommates and Triplingman crush Sumeet Vyas. He has been paired with Kareena, and this is what he had to say about his experience shooting with her, "I was slightly intimidated by the fact that I am paired with Kareena. It was a bit intimidating to see six bodyguards around her every time we were shooting."

PS – We are ready for the good vibes, good times to arrive soon! But, we have to wait till June 1.
